I use Nord. However, for what it’s worth, I am suspicious of all VPNs. That they’ve been allowed to proliferate suggests to me that the three letter agencies already have a way around them the rest of us don’t know about.
They track us through our behavior on the internet, they don't need ISPs. A VPN makes it harder for regular law enforcement and randos on the internet to figure out who you are but the feds have behavioral fingerprinting programs that will find you no matter where you're connecting from. You need to get really serious with Tails and Tor if you want to hide from them but that's a pretty annoying way to use the internet and you wouldn't use it for your regular accounts and such anyways.
Basically, they do have a way around it, but a VPN makes going through your ISP useless which is something and you get to change your IP at will.

Surfshark
